Despite being Twilight's assistant, Spike finds himself with plenty of time to help other ponies - most notably Rarity, though he'll obligingly provide fledgling playwright skills or other odd jobs if asked (and lately, helping Starlight Glimmer must also figure in). Usually it's enough helping the more spellbound ponies, however. Rarity is always happy for the assistance in gem collection; her finding spell may be part of her talent, but the labor takes a toll on her sterling complexion and as tempting as it is, she can't spend all her days at the spa. Spike's willing cooperation is a boon force multiplier that drastically reduces time away from dress design and the practical use of all the material components she gathers!With all her experience with precious stones, though, has she tried comparing geological notes with Maud?

Garbage.
Which one would youadopt?

It's better than sparity
>>27109492
They all have parents, don't they?
I guess any if they had need.Twist
>>27109455
I wonder if Spike gets anything in return for helping her. Seemed like he's doing it more or less regularly.

As an entire scene, yeah.
Yours is just a decent jazz track which you can by the hundreds in stuff like Impossible Creatures.

I forgot that one was a sunbutt. There needs to be a stack with all the sunbutts.
Please don't stack the fillies.

Sadly, I don't think this one counts, even if she wore a sun dress.

shes going to do it
there is no saving the filly now
>>27109706
And out there somewhere a rogue dragon died of scratching himself to death: he didn't have anyone to tell him what's happening.

>>27109701
That mare's mane makes no sense.
>>27109805
I'll never understand this sort of censoring. It just makes people think of what word they were saying before it got cut out, and most people (even kids) will think of words far worse than "fools"
>>27109847
>>27109805
Wait, is that thing real?
>>27109796
What if bullying is my fetish?
>>27109847
That's why overzealous censoring is, in its own way, a source of humor since it lets you fill in the blanks yourself.
>Pony tries to struggle as you pick it up under your arm like a football.

TO ADVENTURE!Adventure is the park
>>27109905
you can't just keep taking random ponies tot he park
they have stuff to do
>>27109915
What if they work at the park?
>>27109877
m8 my niece of 5 got sent home with a warning letter because she called someone "silly"
It's the world we live in now
>>27109930
then they'd already be in the park
>>27109905
>Pony squeals in fear and tries desperately to hang on to posts, walls, other ponies, etc as you whistle a jaunty tune on your way to the park.
>>27109936
You should send a warning letter about warning letters to the school, saying that you don't condone their use.
>>27109895
I find stuff like "f*ck" even worse to be honest, because it absolutely doesn't filter anything. You still used the word and everyone knows exactly which word it was.
>>27109948
What if they were running late, or were stuck in horse traffic?
>>27109915
>they have stuff to do
What if my job is to bring ponies to the park? Can they really say that their task was more important than mine?
>>27109936
>sent home with a warning letter because she called someone "silly"
What the fuck
>>27109960
That's the sort of censoring that only idiots use, Anon. It makes them feel like they're "protecting the children" without actually doing a damn thing.
>>27109895
And it's so hard to get out of your head.
I still fill in the swearwords into S1 scenes which got a feature in this vid.

>>27109972
>What the heck, Rainbow Dash? Don't swear!
>>27109954
And look! It's a picnic with your friends here!
>>27109961
>>27109970
okay, so before you pick up any more ponies you have to ask if they work in the park first
>>27109936
I seriously hope I will never have to deal with such people.
If they get upset because someone used the word "silly" they should probably go home, put on a diaper and finally give in to their baby fetish.
>>27109993
What about fillies? Can I still bring them to the ice cream parlor?
Censored swear wordsepisode when?
>>27110009
of course
>>27110018
After the 100% uncensored swearing episode.
>>27110018
>pony swears are replaced with horse noises
Might be fun.
>>27110018
You posted that in spoiler tags, so now I'm imagining an episode where Twilight is trying to read a book but she's constantly interrupted and other characters are having a spoiler-filled discussion about the book's story.
>>27110037
Is this their debut episode?

>>27110040
That would be fun, but I don't think it fits the tone of the show unfortunately.
Maybe a background pony could stub their hoof on something and make a horse noise though. That might fit.

They usually have some made up vulgarisms for such situations.
You know, like Applejack's "Fiddlesticks!", "Aw, picklefeathers!" and so on.

>>27110133
Yeah that's true, they do. And I enjoy the horse-isms. Like the time AJ said "horse apples".
>>27110155
Where did Rarara's horn go?
>>27110177
it's in the headlight
>>27110177
>Magic
>Ain't gonna explain...
>>27110177
The lamp on her helmet actually has no bulb, just a hole in the back for a unicorn's horn to fit through. Just applying a little light to the tip allows for the mirrors around the horn to reflect much more concentrated light in a specific direction at a fraction of the effort.
>>27110141
Just imagine how fast Anon must be running
Filly got bored of seeking revenge and went to the donut shop.
>>27110201
This is my chance to catch filly unawares

>>27110264
What?
>>27110296
He's talking about No Second Prances' synopsis.
>>27110290
Wonderbolts - that RD goof up episode
Fashion success in a big city - RY Manehatten episode
Some Applejack episode focusing on work.
I mean, why would the Wonderbolts take RD in all of a sudden.
Would it be too much of a stretch to assume a connection with a super-secret Glimmer + villain episode?
>>27110311
Yes, but I have no idea what he's implying
>>27110186
That is actually pretty damn cool.
Again unicorns show their pure superiority over the other lesser races
>>27110313

>depends on the villain
It's Starlight, the limits are off.
She might as well go and try to befriend her older self.
>>27110447
Excellent! No pony left undrawn!
>>27110447
Nice
>>27110475
She makes a good waifu
>>27110475
I'd tame that dragon
>>27110538
This makes me surprisingly uncomfortable.
Could they still play off the old dragons as a different breed/creatures than these new ones?
>>27110447

>She might as well go and try to befriend her older self.

>RD is becoming more of a butt monkey than Spike
Fucking depressing. So many better thing they could've done with her.
>>27110313
>Fashion success in a big city - RY Manehatten episode
We already had those before though. Rarity already fulfilled her life goal.
The pony knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The pony's brain uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the pony from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.
>>27110832
Sure, it's just fitting into a pattern here.
Besides, she gave literally zero fucks back then, might as well retcon her love for Canterlot with love for Manehatten...I mean, acknowledge said retcon as it is already the current canon.
>>27110855
I am still not sure what you are implying though.That last panel actually made the comic funny again
>>27110855
You can like more than one city at a time
>>27110853
Ponies are not missiles, anon.
>>27110908
>sentenal is alive
>and he's found people to play with
That's nice
>>27110880
>You're from Canterlot?!
>All the sofistication, the glamour!
>I've always wanted to live there!
>Rarity sets up her main boutique in Manehatten, her Canterlot boutique being just a blip on the corporate radar headed by some stuck up businesswoman.
Let's be real, she got to Canterlot and now it's boring for her, she's a hipster just like all her love interests.
>>27110873
He's implying that m6 will each get their dream fulfilled and will ascend. Or die. Or live happily ever after.
>>27110930
>Equestria will end up like the alternate dimension with Flim&Flam, just with Rarity
Congratulations, you can select one pony to automagically be yours and instantly appear right where you are, right now.The catch is, you will tear them away from all their friends forever and all their magic and cartoon abilities are nullified once they're off Equestria.
>>27110855
WAIT A FUCKING SECOND!!!!!! I have a question.
All those dragons (and perhaps ember) want to invade pony villa right? Why doesn't Dragon Lord Torch want to invade ponyville?
>>27111078

>>27111070
I'll take Nightmare Moon. Not like she had any friends or future anyway.
>>27111082
He's a fat-ass on a throne.
Invasions take effort. Why bother?
>>27111070
That's too cruel to do it to a pony.
>>27111070
I'll just take a changeling then.
>>27111102
>Take Nightmare Moon
>Magic is nullied
>Turns back to Luna
>"Where am I? Where is my sister?"
>>27111116
Unless you choose a pony that was going to die anyway.
>>27111134
I'm thinking more about the comic version, where they were two separate entities.
But okay, Sombra then. *That* one sure won't be missed, and will benefit from the magic nullification effect.
>>27111167
But Sombra is literally dead

>>27111413
What if the changelings were the friends we made along the way all along?
>>27111362
It's possible, but very, very unlikely.
Let's face it, anon. That guy was a spy all along.
>>27110699
You mean a pony that it generated for you?
>>27111431
With the other changelings popping up in the background it could indeed have been intentional
>>27111440

>>27111621
OH BABY TIME TO KEEP ROLLING UNTIL I GET ONE OF THOSEor just draw that one if it's fine with you - I need to draw more bats anyways
You guys, you can't just roll up ponies and not draw them!
The ponies must be drawn!
>>27111717
SMALL, CUTE, AND EDIBLE?
>>27111744
>or just draw that one if it's fine with you - I need to draw more bats anyways
Oh, go for it man
>>27111744
whoops, here's the key for mine, in case it matters
not the color choice I'd choose for a cyborg, but then again, I'm not a pony.
>>27111592
Roll it again anon, and just keep the blind and hot headed traits. I wanna see what you get.
Do I play Dota 2 or Cities Skylines?
>>27111744
Cutiebot
>>27111768
Colorful, exquisite and destined to be cut.
>>27111744
That's cute as fuck, and you cranked that out pretty fast too.
>>27111782
Cities.
Dota a shit that just gets you mad as hell. You know it to be true.
>>27111782
Watch dota while playing Cities
>>27111805
i-implying i have dual monitors ;_;
>>27111782
Make the Mayor proud!
>>27111776
Okay.
>>27111793
Don't cut the fillies.
>>27111841
Neat. The eyepatch is kinda funny cause they're blind, do you wanna keep it for the looks?
>>27111867
Why?
>>27111877
It's a leftover from their hotheaded, non-blind days
Nowadays, after the accident, she wears two of them.
>>27111915
Hah, let's go with that.
>>27111867
filly told me she was into that
>>27111769help I love her
>>27112002
That's super cute
>>27111877
Sure.
>>27111915
You're not me.
>>27112014Or am I?
I'm kinda sad I didn't get glasses. Still small lusty unicorn sounds great.
Too bad I can't drawThis is the second pony I got, the first was a batpony but fuck batponies
>>27112002
She is pretty cute though, so I can see why.
>>27112033
No I'm pretty sure you're not me.
I mean, unless you can tell me what I've got on my right arm or what's sitting directly to my left, then I'm positive you're someone else.
>>27112033
Go home, bugass. You're drunk on bukkake.
>>27112052
You knowFuck them~
>>27112052
No excuse
>>27112052
Now, I wonder if that's small as in short, or small as in filly.
>>27112103
A miniature pony
>>27112128
Again, that could include fillies.
>>27112052
>I'm kinda sad I didn't get glasses
Anon, you do know that there isn't a law forbidding you from drawing her with glasses, right?
>>27112141
Yeah, but there's a law forbidding me from drawing.
My hands can only create pain and suffering, not art
>>27112052
>small lusty unicorn mare
hnnng
>>27112159
To be fair, this thing is predisposed towards mares, since nobody ever throws in a guy snout in their randomizers.
>>27112159
Think of how nice it will bewhen you see that nice bulge while you're fucking her.
>>27111691
